## Caption

Throw Back Thursday! By the mid-1950s, water skiing was very popular at Ruttger's. Jack Ruttger, other employees, and even guests would put on a water ski show every Saturday during the summer months. These shows were open to the public and would feature pyramids of skiers, a water ski jump, and a flag act like this photo shows! Speaking of water ski shows, we will be hosting the Brainerd Ski Loons Water Ski Show for the last time this summer on August 8th, starting at 6:30 pm! You don't want to miss it. Bring a chair or blanket for seating and enjoy a fantastic FREE show! #rblr #ruttgersresort #odysseyresorts #baylakemn #throwbackthursday #history #waterskishow #skiloons
